Vote for Kik at SXSW 2019!

August 07, 2018News

Recently, we released chat themes, a new feature that allows you to customize your chat background in iOS and Android devices. We also introduced premium versions of these themes, which are unlocked through the cryptocurrency Kin, to a limited amount of lucky Kik users.

Developing this new feature that you requested was a labor of love, and we’re proud that we’ve been able to bring you a feature that you’ve requested. We want to tell the world about this accomplishment, so we’ve nominated Laura Newton, product manager at Kik, as a speaker at SXSW, where she can share more about the experience of building this awesome product for you. SXSW is one of the must-attend tech conferences that spans a variety of topics from marketing and coding to health and politics, and we want in!

Loving your premium themes or just want to give some props to your favorite chat app? Show your support and vote for Laura’s session, titled ‘Cryptocurrency: easy to do, hard to do right’ here.
